Checked my numbers: my Excursions (29.5) started out at 2316 gms for the pair of shells. The lightest they got with cuffs still on and, with tongues, was 2210. with liners, that would be 2565 gms (stock thermo liners, trimmed here and there) PEr Skintrack, the F1 Race is 2240 for a pair, with liners...

Andy - All posted weights I have seen tell me that F1's, F1 races, and F1 Carbons are all lighter than excursions. I have never held a pair, so I have only hearsay regarding stiffness. I have heard there is a significant difference in flex from F1 to F1 race. And yes I have heard that Scarp does 29....

I`m probably done playing around with the excursions. Despite all the mods it it is still such a stiff, heavy boot compared to what could be. I find it frustrating that there is such a void between them and the beefiest NNN-BC boots or the fabric/leather 75mm boots. What i want lies midway and does ...

I know the basics - how far, etc. And I`m getting an idea on timing, seems like in an average snow year I could go as late as mid to late March. But woul...

Cant help on the alaskas; but as far as scarpa to garmont, i have 29.5 excursions that fit me and my friend's T3 in size 30 are just bit big so i think they run about the same.

I also think that climate is a big part of this too... Indeed, and this is where i wonder just where and how to apply the appropriate pinch of salt to all of this good advice, as High Sierra spring and northeast spring (or winter) must be quite different things but i have no experience in your neck...
